In the Heart of the Afternoon

In the silence that falls upon the day, I listen to the slow breath of the hours.

Lord, thank You for every moment given to me, for the hands that act and the heart that remains watchful.

Grant me Your light to discern the paths, Your strength to renew every choice.

Help me to be patient and to see the good, even in today's struggles.

Stay by my side in the small gestures and decisions I encounter.

I entrust to You what I will accomplish this afternoon.

Sweet Mother, watch over my steps and accompany me always.

Amen. 🌿
